The Notebooking Daily Fall Writing Series is a daily writing exercises for both prose writers and poets to keep your creative mind stretched and ready to go—fresh for your other writing endeavors. The writing prompts take the impetus—that initial crystal of creation—out of your hands (for the most part) and changes your writing creation into creative problem solving. Instead of being preoccupied with the question "What do I write" you are instead pondering "How do I make this work?" And in the process you are producing new writing.
These exercises are not meant to be a standard writing session. They are meant to be productive and to keep your brain thinking about using language to solve simple or complex problems. The worst thing you can do is sit there inactive. It's like taking a 5 minute breather in the middle of a spin class—the point is to push, to produce something, however imperfect. If you don't overthink them, you will be able to complete all of the exercises in under 30 minutes.

Title: Use this title generator. Get a look at the 3 things below that you must use and generate phrases 6 at a time. Try the more button on the generator no more than three times. If you click it a third time, that's it. Pick one of those. This is one of the better title generators I've found. "Dreams of Flying" is one I got which could be about a Christmas picture in which the family sits around the tree doing the 'Home Alone face' for a Polaroid while playing a big game of Spades, and while that's how the family remembers that Christmas eve, the narrator mostly remembers their dream that night, a recurring dream of flying which happens any time they're feeling really happy—as an example.- A Deck of Cards
- A Polaroid picture
- Home Alone (movie)
